• Gestures, new player animations
    103 replies, posted
So I've been fucking around with the player's animations today. And I think we're ready to add new animations. There's one problem - I'm not an animator. So, I was wondering whether anyone wanted to donate some animations for me to include in the animations. I've been playing with the animations that Nickolas did (if you think you can improve any of these - go ahead). [hd]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t5rhuG6-uXM[/hd] They look fine but I think there's something wrong with a couple of them. They seem to do the action in the direction that the legs are facing - rather than the direction that the player is looking. So if you think you can improve any of these I'm eager to see what you can do. Post a movie of the animation you've made or something.
Looking great dude.
Will we be able to high five other players?
This is a great idea.
It would great if others could help out, overall awesome idea.
Do not understand why developers always realize their own ideas, but never community, but still, it is good that you at least to do something :tiphat:
I wish I could help but I am terrible at animating. Just out of curiosity, are the poses the player model makes while holding weapons and the such, considered animations? Would you also consider new poses for holding weapons? Such as more correct postures rather than being hunched backed for almost everything? I am just throwing out the idea.
Looking good Garry. I like zeldar's comment. We should be able to High-5 other players.
I love the one for when people are using the mic, that's really cool.
It seems a bit misplaced but really cool as said
Some of those animations aren't bad, but look like they could be sped up. If anyone has any ideas for animations, leave em here, or PM me.
So you're trying to implement Lost Planet 2 type gestures? They'd be useful for multilayer, that's for sure. If you want ideas for some others, here's a video. A couple of those would be fun to have. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awilBmzh08U[/media]
Dear Garry. From the day i found gmod amongst the endless sea of games, i knew that you are one of the world's most awesome people. This approves it even more.
This is an awesome idea and I support and approve.
This will never work :buddy:
Holy fuck, I just shat bricks because of awesomeness and they seem to do hand gestures to me.
[QUOTE=garry;27709792]I'm eager to see what you can do[/QUOTE] Here's my latest production, rendered entirely in Gmod and animated in 3ds Max 2011 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4iJ85d085c[/media] (also great job on the system, how exactly are they toggled?)
It would be nice to have some idle animations for when you're not in combat, similar with L4D idle? I like these new ones you've made though, how are they activated? Through commands?
Holy shit, imagine some of these as taunts in a Deathmatch-esque type of mode? Uhghghgghghg
Max of S2D, who posted above, is good with these things as far as I know.
I can do some shit if you want, here's some examples of the things I've done: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbg1GUJJMwk[/media] [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/crouchanim1.gif[/img] I've done some other stuff like the female crouch animation but I haven't recorded any of it.
Are you making some sort of suite that lua coders and modelers can use to run animations through the player, or are you simply adding them to the player models or whatnot?
Any chance we can instead find a way to add new animations without having to recompile the whole model?
[QUOTE=Big Bang;27714085]Any chance we can instead find a way to add new animations without having to recompile the whole model?[/QUOTE] Yeah, they will just be included in the animation packages that current playermodels should already use.
Holy shit please!
[QUOTE=Korro Bravin;27714520]Yeah, they will just be included in the animation packages that current playermodels should already use.[/QUOTE] It'd be pretty nice if we could get the sources & QC to the animation MDLs
These animations are so cool ! These will make Garry's Mod more original ! Oh, and... LOOLOL FIRST PAGE FIRST PAGE

Are these new anims going to be included in the already existing anim .mdls? If not, It's going to break quite a lot of the existing custom playermodels. [B]Edit:[/B] We need some good swimming animations.
I'd assume they would.
